Addons for Friendica
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
This repository is a collection of addons for the [Friendica Social Communications Server](https://github.com/friendica/friendica).
|
|
You can add these addons to the /addon directory of your Friendica installation do extend the functionality of your node.
|
|
|
|
After uploading the addons to your server, you need to activate the desired addons in the Admin panel. Addons not activated have no effect on your node.
|
|
|
|
You can find more addons in the [Friendica Addon listing](https://addons.friendo.ca) in cases the addon developers have choosen not to include them here.
|
|
|
|
## Connectors
|
|
|
|
Among these addons there are also the [connectors](https://github.com/friendica/friendica/blob/master/doc/Connectors.md) for various other networks (e.g. Twitter, pump.io, Google+) that are needed for communication when the protocol is not supported by Friendica core (DFRN, OStatus and Diaspora).
|
|
|
|
For communication with contacts in networks supporting those (e.g. GNU social, Diaspora and red#matrix) you just need to access the page configuration in the Admin panel and enable them. For networks where communication is only possible the API access to a remote account, you need to activate the fitting connectors.
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
The addon interface of Friendica is very flexible and powerful, so if you are missing functionality, your chances are high it may be added with an addon.
|
|
See the [documentation](https://github.com/friendica/friendica/blob/master/doc/Addons.md) for more information on the addon development.

|
Addons can be translated like any other part of Friendica.
